Roger is sleeping pretty well (between bouts of coughing). He is eating better than he has in a month. He says he feels pretty well. I could almost fool myself into believing he is getting better. I have to remind myself that he sleeps most of the time and , for all intents and purposes, he has not been out of bed since early December. I have to remind myself that leukemia is creeping, sneaking and multiplying.
This week Roger wants to visit his oncologist's office. There is no help from that quarter; I think it's more of an emotional need. But if he wants to go for a visit, we'll make it happen.
I need to get myself to the doctor this week too. I need to shake this cough that I've had off and on for the last few weeks once and for all.
We've had lots of messages of love and concern and thank you all for that.
Things are going okay.
Candi you are the best caregiver around. Be sure to take care of yourself too. Thinking of you. The McAteers
